Right, so I’m looking to deploy a intranet server, allowing for some modern tools across our departments. Ubuntu 22 LTS is a fair choice, there have been some complaints regarding the desktop, but I think 22 server is pretty solid. We are going to be installing LAMP, Joomla and GLPI.
Get yourself a Ubuntu 22 machine going (for me, on VMware 7).
Install LAMP: $ sudo apt install lamp-server^
Now is a good time to save.
Configure mysql for Joomla:
$ mysql -u root -p
> CREATE DATABASE joomla;
> CREATE USER ‘joomla’@’localhost’ IDENTIFIED BY ‘Password’;
> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON joomla.* TO ‘joomla’@’localhost’;
Notes:
I spent like 10 minutes typing the same goddamn line into mysql for no good fscking reason… The fscks depreciated the use of “GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES TO ‘user’@’host’ IDENTIFIED BY ‘Password’;“… and couldn’t add a even slightly descriptive error – just some numbers. Eat a line of shitcode, mysql developers. Choke on it too.
Casino opponents urged council in September to send a letter to the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board noting opposition in the community to the proposed casino before a public hearing is held to decide on licensing approval, which could come as early as November.
No council members expressed support for such a letter but asked township solicitor Louis Glantz to weigh in with an opinion on the ramifications of doing so. On Thursday night, after more than 90 minutes of discussion and public comment, council declined to send the letter or to forward correspondence received by the township since the state’s public comment period for the casino license closed in June, which is available in its entirety on the township web site.
College Township chose not to opt out as a casino host site when given the opportunity to do so in late 2017 and council conditionally approved a land development plan for the casino at the former Macy’s property at the mall in 2021. Neither of those decisions can now be rescinded and SC Gaming OpCo — the entity led by Ira Lubert that is developing the $123 million category 4 “mini casino” in partnership with Bally’s — has already spent about $20 million predicated on the approvals, Glantz wrote.
and just to further add, FSCK the goddamn lawyers who allow statements like “spent about $20 million predicated on the approvals” to enter into the records. How about some facts you hack?! Another one in the pocket of BiG cASSino. Fuck this god forsaken pit.
So I had a bunch of resources on the old site regarding The Battle for Middle Earth. Perhaps the greatest RPG ever… certainly the best LOTR RPG ever. 😉
Going over the old stuff, it was mostly dealing with Daemon Tools, .iso’s and such… the wayback machine has a good capture of that info here.
Since then, there are some new projects to bring life back to this great game.
Last link was to a dead page on MS’s site. This time I’ll grab the page (and the file, let me know if you need it).
RDCMan manages multiple remote desktop connections. It is useful for managing server labs where you need regular access to each machine such as automated checkin systems and data centers.
This is a great collection of tools for Hyper-V. It has been a while, but I think many of these are still working. This is a reprint of altaro’s site.
Free Hyper-V Management Tools
This is a collection of utilities intended to make Hyper-V management easier. The criteria to be included here are that the tools must be free, full-featured (no trials), and must not be locked away behind any spam or telemarketing walls.

Larger workgroups can be a chore. For example, finding the Master Browser…
Here is a batch/script for finding the Master Browser on your workgroup.
TITLE Browse Master Finder
Color 18
cls
@ECHO OFF
ECHO This script is property of Mike. This script is to discover Browse Master.
ECHO.
ECHO.
for /f "delims=\= " %%C in ('net view ^| find "\\"') do @echo -Checking %%C && @nbtstat -a %%C | find "MSBROWSE"
pause
Disable the Master Browser Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10 / Server 2008, 2008 R2, 2012, 2016:
Open the registry editor.
Browse to HKey_Local_Machine\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Browser\Parameters.
Edit the key MaintainServerList to read FALSE
Windows XP / Server 2003:
Open the registry editor.
Browse to HKey_Local_Machine\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Browser\Parameters.
Edit the key IsDomainMaster to read FALSE and the key MaintainServerList to read NO
On the server computer, the value for IsDomainMaster should be TRUE and for MaintainServerList should be YES. Reboot all machines, bringing up the server computer (now the Master Browser) first. Microsoft states that it could take as long as 48 minutes for the Master Browser to recognize new computers. However, on a network where broadcasts and network traffic are within normal parameters, the time should be about half of that, or 24 minutes.
NIRSoft has a nice utility that can be useful as well. NetBScanner
Seriously, why the fsck would anyone care?! Maybe you should learn the language of the land you are visiting, or not be pissed that you have trouble communicating.
Regardless, in this case, a possible solution may be for the person to go the fsck home where everyone speaks her language and she won’t feel isolated.
I wonder what experience I would have attending a top Chinese school without learning Chinese beforehand?
Why on earth would anyone side with that piece of afterbirth, Putin? This sonofabitch will fsck your wife and daughter (with another man’s Richard) in front of your eyes and then toss all of you out the window.
One of the most disingenuous motherfsckers in all the world.
He trusts no one and no one should trust him.
While nowhere near as offensive as China’s recent global behavior, I will not simply give a pass to India’s warming to Russian actions.
India has no loyalty. It is simply not something that one should expect from them. We gave India over $200,000,000 for Covid relief. In fact, we have given India over $65,000,000,000 since WW2 in absofsckinglootley free money.
India would rather be buddies with Putin.
Lets pressure our leaders to remove all “free” aid to the country of India. Let them hit up Russia for help. Oh, and while we are at it, lets remove India’s trade status as well. If they wish to practice warring against us, at least let them do so using their own money.
In the beginning, there was a plan,
And then came the assumptions,
And the assumptions were without form,
And the plan without substance,
And the darkness was upon the face of the workers,
And they spoke among themselves saying,
“It is a crock of shit and it stinks.”
And the workers went unto their Supervisors and said,
“It is a pile of dung, and we cannot live with the smell.”
And the Supervisors went unto their Managers saying,
“It is a container of excrement, and it is very strong,
Such that none may abide by it.”
And the Managers went unto their Directors saying,
“It is a vessel of fertilizer, and none may abide by its strength.”
And the Directors spoke among themselves saying to one another,
“It contains that which aids plants growth, and it is very strong.”
And the Directors went to the Vice Presidents saying unto them,
“It promotes growth, and it is very powerful.”
And the Vice Presidents went to the President, saying unto him,
“This new plan will actively promote the growth and vigor
Of the company With very powerful effects.”
And the President looked upon the Plan
And saw that it was good,
And the Plan became Policy.
